Chapter 254 Nangong Xuanyu Wants a Virtuous Queen
Concubine Liu's heart was lifted up, and she carefully examined the eldest princess from head to toe: "Did Concubine Rou do anything to Yun'er?!"
Although Concubine Rou is her ally, one cannot judge a person by his appearance.
Especially after Concubine Xiao returned, every time Concubine Liu closed her eyes, she saw the Second Prince choking and his face turning red, gradually losing his breath.
She is now worried that someone will attack the eldest princess, and she is already extremely nervous!
Xiao Weizi said respectfully: "The servants and the nannies have been watching from the side. Concubine Rou has not done anything to harm the princess. On the contrary..."
Hearing him say that the eldest princess was no longer angry because Shen Zhinian had enlightened her, Concubine Liu's eyes flashed with complexity...
It's not that she is mean and has to speculate about Concubine Rou with malice, but she only has Yun'er as a child and she is really afraid that Yun'er will encounter any danger!
"Mother..."
The eldest princess asked in a baby voice, "Yun'er likes Concubine Rou very much. Can I go to Zhongcui Palace to play with Concubine Rou in the future?"
This is clearly the daughter he gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy, why does he like Concubine Rou so much?
Concubine Liu felt a little uncomfortable, and hugged the eldest princess and said, "No matter how good the women in the harem are to you, they may not be sincere. How can they compare to your own mother?"
"Yun'er, listen to your mother. Don't trust anyone in the palace except your mother!"
The eldest princess lowered her head, feeling a little disappointed, but she did not dare to refute Concubine Liu: "Yes..."
Mother was the one who loved her the most, but she really felt that Empress Rou was also very good...
……
The emperor has issued a death order that the murderer of Concubine Zhou must be found!
Because he was really afraid that one day Nian Nian and the royal heir would be harmed by someone...
In the past few days, the Ministry of Punishment has been very busy. Any palace servant who showed the slightest suspicion was arrested and interrogated!
finally--
Su Quanye presented the final result to the emperor.
"…Your Majesty, it was Noble Lady Wen who ordered Anqi to release spiders in the plum garden in order to scare Noble Lady Zhou."
"Xia Chan, who is beside Concubine Meng, is loyal to the Empress. This time, the matter was pushed onto Concubine Meng in order to prevent Concubine Wen from being found out."
"It's just that... the spider that Concubine Wen had Anqi release was a non-venomous spider. It was Xier who replaced the spider with a poisonous one, intending to get rid of Concubine Zhou and then put the blame on Concubine Wen!"
Nangong Xuanyu looked at the confession in his hand, his face becoming more and more gloomy!
He actually didn't know when the harem had become so chaotic, with concubines fighting against each other, murdering each other, and almost harming the royal heir!
The emperor's burden lies in the front court, and managing the harem is the queen's responsibility. But even if the queen is not seriously ill, with her vicious heart, the harem will only be more chaotic than it is now!
In the entire imperial palace, only Zhongcui Palace is a pure land.
Nangong Xuanyu placed the confession heavily on the table and asked in a deep voice: "Who does Xier belong to?!"
He wanted to know who was the one who was scheming against everyone!
"Your Majesty, please forgive me..."
Su Quanye knelt on the ground immediately, cold sweat dripping down his forehead: "Xier committed suicide out of fear of crime, and all clues are lost... I am incompetent, and I only found out these things, but I couldn't find out the master behind her..."
The person behind the scenes hid so deeply, how could he be easily found out?
However, since the other party has done it, he will be exposed sooner or later. The emperor asked Su Quanye to continue watching in secret.
Su Quanye breathed a sigh of relief: "...Yes."
"I wonder how Your Majesty will deal with Noble Wen?"
Although Concubine Zhou had her limbs amputated and the heir to the throne was almost lost, she was not the real murderer. But if she had not had the evil intention first, the person behind the scenes would not have had the opportunity to do it.
There was a glimmer of gloom in the emperor's eyes.
He originally thought that since Concubine Wen could write such a timeless masterpiece as "Water Melody", she must be a free and cheerful person, unlike those vicious women in the harem.
Unexpectedly, although she is not vicious, she has bad intentions!
It seems that a person's poetry quality does not represent his character as a person.
however……
Gu Jinxiao had almost collected all the evidence of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion's violation of the rules. Zhou Yuxi also successfully infiltrated the army under the Duke of Zhenguo's command.
If the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion becomes alert at this time, the plan will not be able to proceed.
Not only can he not deal with Concubine Wen, he also has to favor her!
Nangong Xuanyu's eyes were gloomy. "...I will inform the six palaces that Concubine Zhou was bitten by a poisonous spider. It was just an accident! Xi'er and Xia Chan could not bear the punishment of the Ministry of Punishment, so they slandered their respective masters casually."
"Beat Xia Chan to death with a stick! All the palace servants involved will be executed!"
"Lift the house arrest in Changchun Palace, Yanxi Palace, Wanxiang Pavilion, and Yawen Garden, and have the Ministry of Internal Affairs send them a reward to appease them."
Su Quanye and Li Changde said at the same time: "I obey your command!"
Nangong Xuanyu paused, and then said: "Noble Lady Zhou was wronged in this matter. Tell the people in Yongshou Palace to take good care of her from now on. I hope that when Noble Lady Zhou gives birth, both the mother and the heir are safe!"
"Send another person to convey my intention to the Cining Palace."
Li Changde understood that His Majesty was warning the Imperial Concubine and the Empress Dowager not to think of leaving the mother and keeping the son!
Anyway, Concubine Zhou is already disabled, so the Imperial Concubine and the Empress Dowager will no longer take her seriously.
"Yes!"
After dealing with these matters, the emperor suddenly felt very tired...
It is said that the queen is the emperor's wise wife and has the responsibility to assist the emperor and create a peaceful and prosperous era.
If there was a virtuous queen in the harem, there wouldn't be so many scandals...
Time passed by little by little, and the sky gradually darkened.
As usual, the people from the Jingshifang brought over the green card.
Li Changde asked, "Your Majesty, are you going to turn over the cards tonight, or go to Chengqian Palace to visit Empress Xiao and the Third Prince like you did a few days ago?"
I don't know when it started, but whenever the emperor felt tired, the figure of Shen Zhinian would appear in his mind...
"I'm going to Zhongcui Palace!"
……
The story of Concubine Zhou's broken arm has come to an end, and the news has spread throughout the harem.
Zhongcui Palace.
After taking a bath, Shen Zhinian lay on the bed, and Nanny Lin applied essential oil on her belly and thighs.
Fuqiu, who was serving beside him, said admiringly, "It is just as your majesty guessed. Even if His Majesty finds out that this matter is related to Noble Lady Wen, he will not punish her."
Shen Zhinian smiled and said, "Your Majesty did not punish Consort Wen, but do you think that this matter has been cleared up in His Majesty's mind?"
"No way."
Fuqiu said, "Your Majesty is the emperor. How many people in the world dare to make the emperor endure? Your Majesty is now considering the face of the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion. If you don't punish Wen Guiren, this matter will snowball in your heart."
"When the outbreak occurs, one can imagine what will happen to Ms. Wen..."
At this moment, Li Changde's voice suddenly rang out from outside: "Your Majesty has arrived --!!!"
